Compare methods using the same brief
Send the garment, piece count, print size and locations once, then ask whether DTF or screen printing better fits the job. DTF avoids a separate setup for each artwork color, which can help with a multi-color illustration. A larger one-color run may cost less as a screen print. We will assess the design rather than assume one method always wins.
Check the source file at full print size
A detailed graphic only looks detailed if the file has enough resolution. Supply the original art or a high-resolution transparent file, and flag any small text or soft edges. We show the image on the selected shirt color in a digital proof; review both scale and placement before production.

Treat transit as part of the deadline
We ship Alexandria orders through UPS or USPS from our College Park area base. Include the complete delivery address and the day the shirts need to be in hand. The quote confirms the production window and available carrier service; no local pickup is offered.
For a dated event, use our DMV event shirt ordering guide.
Will a full-color Alexandria design require a screen for each color?
Not with DTF. The artwork is printed as a transfer, so it does not use one screen per color. We can compare it with screen printing once we know the art, garment and quantity.
